Bat Trapping and Removal Companies in Northgate Forest

Even though rabies in bats is not common on a statistical basis, rabies is a deadly disease. Trapping and removal of a bat in Texas can be tricky and should never be attempted if the bat was found in a room where people were sleeping. The Big Brown Bat (Eptesicus fuscus) is also common in the northern areas. While at your property, Northgate Forest bat control will identify the entry points bats are using to access your home and make recommendations to exclude them permanently. There are significant health risks associated with removing bat guano, bird or animal dropping accumulations. Nuisance bats suspected of having rabies should always be left for professionals to remove.

HOW DO I GET RID OF BATS FROM AN ATTIC?Bat removal is not a simple task. Inspection: You have to find out how the bats are getting in and out of the building, where they are living, what species they are, and what damage they have caused. There is no effective bat repellent for example that can do the job easily. The proper way to get rid of them is to exclude the colony – seal off 100% of possible secondary entry points on the home and remove all of the bats from the building safely. They then fly back out to feed some more. It is often very challenging, and it must be done just the right way. An amateur attempt, by someone with no experience, or worse, a pest control company that uses bat poison, could result in disaster – dead, rotting bats, and bats swarming throughout the walls and the home. Oddly enough, we have found many insurance companies will not cover the exclusion cost, but will cover the guano removal and clean-up program.
